Worst. Gratitude List. Ever. (But So Powerful!)
Yesterday, I wrote a “nice” gratitude post listing 7 things I’m grateful for. Today, I promised you a “naughty” one. This is a difficult list to write, but once you master the art of writing this type of twisted list, you free yourself from the painful...
7 things I’m grateful for…
For many in the US, Thanksgiving is a time when we reflect on the things we’re grateful for. While gratitude is high on the vibration scale, appreciation is even higher. You want to get high? Start taking appreciation shots. But to get to the pure...
How to Move Through the Pain of a Tragedy
My 16 year old stepdaughter goes to Saugus High School - the very same school where a 16 year old boy, on his birthday last Thursday, opened fire with a .45 caliber handgun in the school’s outdoor Quad and shot 5 students before turning the gun on...
Are you an Identifier, Survivor, Observer or Alchemist?
Last week, I invited you to a free virtual event with The Shift Network [UPDATE: this event is over] where I talk about the 4 stages of emotional awakening for an empath and sensitive soul. Do you know which stage you’re in? Take this quiz to find out. Knowing which...
Aren’t I denying reality if I take the witness seat?
Photo by Anthony Tran In my last blog post, I shared an experience that happened to me over 20 years ago after I caught my then-boyfriend sleeping with another woman, and how I was graced with the gift of “witnessing” in the midst of the pain...
I don’t care about how you feel
I want to be lovingly (or brutally - you choose which word is accurate for you) honest with you today. Not that I’m not honest with you every time I write, but today, let’s get down to the core of how I really feel about your feelings. The truth is: I...

Nontraditional, insensitive advice about feeling not-good-enough (that actually works)

The Evolutionary Empath
[UPDATE: this event is over but you can listen to my talk here.] A few weeks ago, I mentioned an interview I did with a major network where the host asked me, “What’s next for the evolving empath?” This has been brewing in me for the past couple of...
Is FOMO & Facebook causing you to miss out on the important things?
Photographer: Susan Werner People have been asking me, “Tree, are you alive?” Yes. Very much so. I haven’t consistently published new blog posts in months and my social media accounts are so quiet, even introverted crickets stay away. Last year, I wrote...
What’s Next for the Evolving Empath?
I recently did an interview with a major network where I talked about being an empath, feeling deep emotions and how to transmute them. I’m sworn to secrecy about the details of the interview for now, but I’ll be able to talk about it later this month as...
Answering the Call of Your Emotions
“I want to watch that movie with you,” my stepdaughter said Friday night after watching “Five Feet Apart” with her friends. I asked her why, knowing that she’s already seen it twice. “Because it’s devastating.” “Why in the world would I want to...
Ode to a Christmas Tree (and all tossed out lovers, everywhere)
Photo by Jeswin Thomas I'm not usually one to write sad posts. So if you prefer not to cry sad tears today, feel free to stop reading. No offense taken. My desire is to add some depth and poignancy to offset the sadness, so we can all be touched deeply in some...
Dreading the family holiday gathering?
Photo by Carl Flor I used to dread family holiday gatherings. On one hand, I wanted to see my family for Christmas because we lived in different states and I missed them. I Iove the idea of family gathered around the Christmas tree opening presents...
Permission to Begin Again
My friend just turned 50. She’s a psychologist and hates her job. I ask why she continues doing it and she tells me she’s invested too much time, energy and money into it to quit. This is the exact same reason she told me 20+ years ago when she became a psychologist...
How to Stop Taking On Other People’s Energy (AKA Mood Bubbles)
Photo Credit: Alejandro Alvarez Last week, I was a featured guest mentor at The Changemakers Circle where all the attendees got to ask me questions, round robin style. The topic was about finding balance in our lives, especially within our emotions. It was an honor...
If a soul cries and no one’s there to hear it, does it still hurt?
Photo credit: Kento Iemoto “Your body can’t get pregnant,” my doctor said matter-of-factly last year, as if she was telling me I had a piece of lint on my shirt. “Oh,” I said. “Ok,” as if picking the lint off and flicking it to the floor. I mirrored...
The Deepening of Surrender
Last week, I wrote about the call to surrender. This week, I was given an opportunity to dive deeper into surrender when my dog, Bailey, became critically ill. (Don’t worry, this story has a happy ending) When we’re faced with the potential loss of a loved one, we...
